The last few years have caused a lot of changes in my life and my approach to the 9 Inning Know It All media group. From shutdowns that stopped games, starting a podcast to try and fill the void, to moving across the country to a place I had never even been to before. On this first episode of 2023 I just breakdown the changes I'm making to my approach of running the sites and lay out some of my hopes. I honestly don't know what all this year has in store but all I can do is take it one day at a time.

Here we are at the end of 2022 and I take some time to look back at the year that was (or wasn't). Listen in to my thoughts and experience from the year and tune in to the next episode when I go through my hopes for 2023.
